Barack obama by his competitor, john mccain. i don t want it getting out of this room that my opponent is an impressive fellow in many ways. political opponents have a little trouble seeing the best in each other, but i ve had a few grimses of this man at his best and i admire his great skill, energy and determination. it s not for nothing that he s inspired so many folks in his own party and beyond. senator obama talking about making history. and he s made quite a bist of it already. there was a time when the mere invitation of an african-american citizen to dine at the white house was taken as an outrage and an insult. in many corridors. today, is a world away from the cruel and prideful bigotry of that time and good riddance. i can t wish my opponent luck, ....
Where it s one against the other and there s a real combat to it and you look for guts, spiritual guts. you look for people that stick to what they believe in, and be their own person. john mccain was always his own person. he wasn t a knee jerk lefty or righty. he didn t fit the mold which was there for so many of these other politicians to sort of slip into. he was always john mccain and he could be disconcerting. you could love him one day and mad at him the next day because he wasn t there to like him. you may not like him on being hawkish but he was always john mccain. when i found him to be a character out of the murphys in the sense that if you were to write a romantic movie about american politics and the u.s. senate especially and you wanted to have heroes in it people that stood out and had guts profiles in courage if you will, he he would be the perfect candidate in real life for that romantic ....

Recent movie that he watched telling about his as a contestant on jeopardy at one point. i said can we pick this up again late silver he loved engaging. always with a cup of coffee in his hand. and he would always tease me about being irish, of course. and it is so out of context if you want quite hear it, but he would call reporters had affection for jess. i was often a jerk. i suspect you might have been a jerk yourself. because he would say it with a smile. oh, you jerk and it was his way of communicating. he had the sparring in the hallways. what i find fascinating about the way he s remember sds someone as flawed and human as anyone but with a level of courage and commitment that is not even every day and that s why there be days of remembrance. there are many people who have done great things in public life. who deserve to be honored and remembered and he has earned his ....
